Place chicken breast in saucepan; cover with water and place over medium heat. Cook until tender and cooked through. Do not discard the water if you wish to use the chicken broth rather than chicken stock powder.
In the meantime, chop onions, carrots and celery. Melt butter in soup kettle/large pan. Saute onion and carrots on low for 4 minutes. Add other vegetables, chicken broth/stock, water, rice and chopped chicken. Bring to the boil, then simmer on medium until vegetables and rice are tender.
Add salt and pepper to taste if desired.

About Me

If you would like to be added to my list of blog readers, please email me studyinghisword@gmail.com as I have made my personal blog, our family blog and my children's blogs private.
I'm 32 years old, married to Daniel. We have two little blessings thus far: Holly (Dolly) is 9 years old, and Daniel (Danny) is 8 years old. My husband Daniel is American by birth, but we currently live in Queensland, Australia, in a semi-rural town north of Brisbane. I am aspiring to be a Biblical housewife, homekeeper and mother. It is my desire to raise my children for the Lord, to be the best wife I can possibly be (see Proverbs 31 - where I get my inspiration from!), and to give Him the glory throughout my life.
